I'm just afraid of something like:
Announcing Pillars 3! A new, linear, action adventure game from Obsidian!
- Featuring An older elf who goes out on an adventure with his daughter. Watch as they grow closer together in cinematic moments that you will have no agency over!
- AAA action adventure combat featuring roll, roll, roll, sword to the butt sword to the butt, roll, roll, roll mechanics!
- Did we mention it's linear as fuck! Yep, no more dialogue options, no more choice and consequence! Just streamlined go form A to B, then to C. Also features climbing, lots of climbing!
Agh, it's like my nightmare scenario. If that doesn't happen, I'll be happy. I know the studio heads, at least, have been wanting to get bought. It's not easy being independent.
